1. Sexual Personae
Art and Decadence from Nefertiti to Emily Dickinson
The book offers a provocative exploration of the interplay between art, culture, and sexuality throughout Western history. It argues that Western culture is deeply rooted in paganism and that sexual identities and artistic expressions are shaped by a tension between the Apollonian and Dionysian forces. Through a series of analyses of literature, art, and historical figures, the author contends that sexual personae have been central to the development of Western civilization, challenging conventional views on feminism, gender, and sexuality.
